  • Correction to Low Hop Clover Photo Identification

    Posted on February 12th, 2013 Gerry 1 comment

    The photo I have been using as the main image for Low Hop Clover – Trifolium campestre – was actually a photograph of Black Medick – Medicago lupulina.  While there are differences in the shape of the individual blossoms and of the overall plant, a key identifier is the small tooth at the end of the terminal leaflet on Black Medick.

    Black Medic - Medicago lupulina

    The photo I had incorrectly identified as Trifolium campestre – this is actually Medicago lupulina

    Low-Hop Clover – Trifolium campestre

    This is my replacement photo for Trifolium campestre

     

    Many thanks to Robert Flogaus-Faust for bringing my attention to this incorrect identification.
